December 14, 1918 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents information on the book "The End of the War," by Walter E. Weyl. This book sets forth the necessary commonplaces of liberal opinion concerning the peace settlement. Weyl argues that England and France have been fighting, not militarism as such, but its incarnation in Germany as being dangerous to them. Because of her history, Germany has been seeing in militarism an insurance, whereas it could be to democracy only a menace. Weyl recommends the awakening of a vast body of public opinion firmly bent on securing for humanity the blessing for lasting peace and the immediate and active union of internationalists throughout the world.
